Wagon, the front of the vigo droped by only half inch, and the 4x2 by one inch. The ride on the vigo did not change. The customer just loved the bar on the vigo!

Thanks rx. Saied, anytime u ready. The guy with lux fell in love with his van all over again. I will post some more pics soon. He also did a back bumper to protect the chrome bumper. Another customer loved the item so much, and trusted it, he dopped the full comprehensive insurance for third party!

compared to all of them, this one weighs almost 2x as much.
accelerates faster than them, and has a higher top speed than them

Looks good but what about air bag deployment

No issue with airbag deployment. One of my customers with a frontier hit an almera from behind one week after fitting his bar. The almera was a total write off, his van's airbags did not deploy because there was no crumpling. However, I was reading up on the airbag issue from ARB bumpers and they said the bumper do not affect airbag deployment. Will try to find the link for u

would the fact that it's gas, and not deisel also make a difference?

the dealers told me that the bars prevent the airbag sensors from detecting the impact and therefore won't deploy..
is that accurate? cause that's the reason i didn't bother to get the bars..

Negative on that. Pay a visit to ARB 4x4 accessories I think, they have a write up on that myth. I'll see if I can find the link and post it.
